Paintball 2Xtremes says... The newest Hittmann accessory to 'hit' the spotlight is the Hittmann Collapsible 4-Position Stock for the Tippmann A-5. This tactical upgrade features lightweight rigid construction with an all aluminum locking center shaft guaranteed by Hittmann to be unbreakable. As an added bonus, a fully adjustable shoulder strap made from HQ webbing is included at no additional cost. Available with a high impact black textured skin, the new Hittmann collapsible 4-position stock for the Tippmann A-5 has a suggested retail price of $79.95. Don't settle for less than the best.

The bad:Wobbly. There is a lot of play between the A5 connector and the tube. There is only one small allen screw to keep the tube connected to the A5 connector. I'm probably going to fix this with a generous amount of metal epoxy before my next game.

Position Selector: To select what position you want the stock to be in you need to use a small ball detent on the side of the stock, rather than the release on the bottom of the stock like other M4 stocks. This makes changing positions very slow in the heat of battle. It also makes a loud noise when the ball slides back into another stop that could cause others to hear.

I'd probably go with a different M4 stock than this one.

Hittmann Collapsible Stock [A-5]

over all a nice stock. it has a button slide system instead of the normalslide and very light weight. the stock fits nicely in the shoulder, but with my A-5 on full auto the butt and slide came loose from the gun. the set screw wasn't able to keep it in place.
